How were these numbers calculated?

We used NYC Open Data’s Motor Vehicle Collisions datasets (Crashes, Persons, Vehicles) filtered to crashes within Senate District 14 between 2022‑01‑01 and 2025‑09‑27. We counted deaths, injuries, and serious injuries and compared year‑to‑date totals to the same period last year. Data were extracted as of Sep 26, 2025. You can start from the datasets [here](https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/Motor-Vehicle-Collisions-Crashes/h9gi-nx95) and apply filters for date range and geography to reproduce these figures.
